Virgil van Dijk has received a lucrative offer to become a member of Saudi-Arabian side Al-Hilal, according to a report in the French daily L’Equipe.
Liverpool’s captain is without a contract in Anfield at the end of the season and has been free since 1 January to talk to clubs from abroad.
L’Equipe says that Van Dijk is considering the deal of a reported £ 320,000 a week.
The 33-year-old is one of the three important Liverpool players whose contracts end in the summer, alongside Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Alexander-Arnold will probably become a member of Real Madrid on a free transfer, while the future of top scorer Salah remains uncertain.
Van Dijk says he is in the dark
Speaking of his own situation after the elimination of Liverpool’s Champions League through the hands of Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday evening, Van Dijk insisted that he had no idea where he would play next season.
He said to The Times: “I have no idea. I still have no idea at the moment. Really, I have no idea right now.
“It’s not on hold. Nothing on hold. There is just … I keep saying the same.
“Listen, there are still 10 games to go, and that is my full focus. If there is news, you will know. I don’t even know myself. Everyone knows that there are some conversations behind the scenes, but that’s just about it.
“At the moment I don’t even know what will happen next year. If someone says they know, they lie to your face. ‘

Wembley Date Next For Liverpool and Van Dijk
Next to Liverpool is the EFL Cup final of Sunday against Newcastle, a match Alexander-Arnold is likely to miss due to injury.
The side of Arne Slot is also 15 points clearly at the top of the Premier League and Van Dijk insists that there is still a lot to play for.
“There are still 10 games left, not much, and there are two big prizes that we can still get,” added the Dutchman, who came to Liverpool in January 2018 from Southampton.
“We’re going to give it everything. We have to disappoint [PSG] But from now on it’s about recovery.
“If we bring this intensity to Wembley with our fans, then I am positive. I am always positive. But I’m really looking forward to being back there.
“We don’t need any added motivation. We have 10 games. The EFL Cup final on Sunday – If you need added motivation, you are in the wrong company.
“Want to celebrate all fans [winning] It. But it will be difficult. Every final is difficult. I’m really looking forward to it.
“We are out of the [the Champions League] competition. That is normal, human. Recovery and be fully focused on Sunday. That is our job, we need our fans to be there for us. “
